Coming to our storefront courtesy of Epomaker, the Skyloong GK61X Lite features a premium CNC-milled case in your case of anodized aluminum or polycarb material, and a hot-swap PCB with integrated RGB SMD lighting. Skyloong has also adopted a Shallow Gasket, all-in-one silicone pad design to help eliminate the board’s traditional design drawback of lacking support in the main typing area by cushioning the shock under each keystroke. This gasket layer is inserted between the PCB and plate. The kit also contains foam for the bottom of the case to reduce hollowness.
The Skyloong GK61X Lite is fully programmable, with layer and macro support, as well as a three-switch spacebar layout that allows for the addition of extra modifier keys, if desired. The integrated RGB lighting can also be programmed with a variety of effects, and is capable of displaying up to 16.8 million different colours!
To program your Skyloong board, you will require proprietary software, provided at the Epomaker website via the links below.

The Freebird60 is provided by KeebsForAll, who wanted to make an easily affordable, easily accessible keyboard with everything but the switches and keycaps provided! Available in four case colours and the choice of three plate materials with a fourth available in extras, alongside the fact that it ships with a full set of Durock V2 screw-in stabilizers, dampening, and even electrophoresis for the coating – you’ll have a hard time finding better value for a starter board than this!
Also available is the Case Only option, in which you will receive the case, dampener + feet, rubber o-rings and screws, and the carrying case, and will have to purchase all other parts separately.
Extra parts available are additional PCBs and plates in three materials (gold/bronze-anodized aluminum, white POM, and black FR4).
